The Other Side of Victory – Wout van Aert

Wout van Aert is best known for his results in cyclocross. As part of his preparation for the 2017/2018 cyclocross season, Wout raced on the roads near his home in Belgium. His race calendar included Schaal Sels—a crazy dirt-grass-cobbled-paved mashup of a road race, which he won in 2016. While Wout didn't repeat his win, taking a close second in the final sprint, it's all part of his preparation for defending his World Championship in cyclocross.

Even though he's a three-time World Champion, Wout's coach and supporters say he's still just a normal guy. This video is a glimpse at how Wout handles the pressure of victory. Watch the full video above, or on the SRAM Road YouTube page.
